GOOD CROPS.

One of our business men presented
a bill to us the oil or day of over 81,
and another a bill Of over $50. We
were forced to politely inform them
that we could not pay until we could
collect"
We wish therefore to say to our sub
scribers that many of them are very
much mistaken when they suppose
that a printer can furnish them news
paper without pay, or even wait them
"forever." Many need not be inform
ed of this fact, but many more seem to
need the information.
And now is the time to begin pay
ing. All are beginning to realize on
their crops. From this time on until
midwinter the flow of money will be
steady. There is nearly a full crop
this year. and everybody should feel
good and in paying mood.
We need money. Remember to drop
in or send in and get your receipt.
THE THREsHER.
The thresher it now running all over
the county and its reports confirm the
promises and estimates Of good crop.
Send in reports from all quarters. For
fourteen years the ADVANCE has given
faithful report from the ''half bush
ell" so that our files furnish complete
crop record. Keep it up.
